In this article, we develop four types of analytical recurrence formulas for non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function on critical line assuming (RH). Thus, all non-trivial zeros up to the $n$th order must be known in order to generate…

We investigate a dynamical basis for the Riemann hypothesis (RH) that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line x = 1/2. In the process we graphically explore, in as rich a way as possible, the diversity of…

We prove new bounds for how often Dirichlet polynomials can take large values. This gives improved estimates for a Dirichlet polynomial of length $N$ taking values of size close to $N^{3/4}$, which is the critical situation for several…

In this paper, for a given Dirichlet character mod $N$ with $4\nmid N$, we give a lower bound of order $\sqrt{s/\log(s)}$ for the dimension of the $\mathbb{Q}(e^{2i\pi/N})$-vector space spanned by the values of its $L$-function at integers…

We give a geometric criterion for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to cyclic characters over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ to vanish at the central point $s=1/2$. The idea is based on the observation that vanishing at the…

Let $q$ be a prime, $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character $\bmod\ q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the associated Dirichlet $L$-function. For every odd prime $q\le 10^7$, we show that $L(1,\chi_\square) > c_{1} \log q$ and $\beta < 1-…

Let $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Hecke-Maass cusp form, and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$, which we assume to be prime. In this note we revisit the subconvexity problem addressed in `The circle method and bounds…

In this paper we prove that the Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1/2+ix,\chi_q)$, where $\chi_q$ is uniformly random Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $x\in \mathbb{R}$, converges to a random Schwartz distribution $\zeta_{\mathrm{rand}}$, which…

We compute the one-level density for the family of cubic Dirichlet $L$-functions when the support of the Fourier transform of a test function is in $(-1,1)$. We also establish the Ratios conjecture prediction for the one-level density for…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non trivial primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ defined $\bmod\ q$, where $q$ is an odd prime. In this paper we introduce a fast method to compute $\vert L(1,\chi) \vert$ using…

We consider negative moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields. Summing over monic square-free polynomials of degree $2g+1$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the $k^{\text{th}}$ shifted…

Adapting a technique of Pintz, we give an elementary demonstration of the Deuring phenomenon: a zero of \zeta(s) off the critical line gives a lower bound on L(1,\chi). The necessary tools are Dirichlet's 'method of the hyperbola', Euler…

In this paper, we investigate the conditional large values of the quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions near the central point $s=1/2$. When $\sigma $ closes to $1/2$ within a suitable range, we show that $L(\sigma, \chi_d)$ have the…

We study non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point under the unlikely assumption that there exists an exceptional Dirichlet character. In particular we prove that if $\psi$ is a real primitive character modulo $D \in…

The moments of central values of families of L-functions have recently attracted much attention and, with the work of Keating and Snaith, there are now precise conjectures for their limiting values. We develop a simple method to establish…
